Postoperative chemotherapy after neoadjuvant chemoradiation and surgery for rectal cancer: Is it essential for patients with ypT0-2N0
Journal of Surgical Oncology, 07/08/09
Huh JW et al. - Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy for patients with good responses after preoperative chemoradiation and curative surgery did not significantly improve the survival. However, this should be validated in prospective randomized trials with larger sample sizes.

But, even in pathologic completion remission, systemic recurrence has occurred in our study. Therefore, chemotherapy for the good responder such as ypT0-2N0 deserves to do. |
